Language proficiency at the level B2+ according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) and successful completion of the course Practical English 3 (BPC-PA 3) are required.

To be eligible for admission to the exam, students must meet the following criteria: have at least 75% attendance, actively participate in classes, complete all assigned tasks, and pass a credit test. The credit test requires a minimum score of 24 points out of a possible 40 points.

Course assessment in points:

• Credit Test: Use of English (max. 40 points, cut-off score 24 pts; students are allowed only one resit).
• Exam: Listening (max. 30 pts, cut-off score 15 pts), Reading (max. 30 pts, cut-off score 15pts).

The content and forms of instruction and assessment are specified by a regulation issued by the course supervisor and updated for every academic year.

The course objectives and output requirements are formulated at a minimum level of C1 (Effective Operational Proficiency) of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).

A course graduate can:
- understand a wide range of demanding, longer texts, and recognise implicit meaning;
- express themselves fluently, precisely and spontaneously;
- use language flexibly and effectively for social, academic and professional purposes;
- can produce clear, well-structured, detailed text on complex subjects, showing controlled use of organisational patterns, connectors and cohesive devices.

Speaking
A course graduate:
- can give clear, detailed descriptions and presentations on complex subjects, integrating sub-themes, developing particular points and rounding off with an appropriate conclusion.

Listening
A course graduate:
- can understand enough to follow extended speech on abstract and complex topics beyond their own field;
- can recognise a wide range of idiomatic expressions and colloquialisms, appreciating register shifts;
- can follow extended speech even when it is not clearly structured and when relationships are only implied and not signalled explicitly.

Reading
A course graduate:
- can understand in detail lengthy, complex texts, whether or not they relate to his/her own area of speciality, provided he/she can reread difficult sections.

Writing
A course graduate:
- can write clear, well-structured texts of complex subjects, underlining the relevant salient issues;
- can expand and support points of view at some length with subsidiary points, reasons and relevant examples, and round off with an appropriate conclusion.
